Chimera (OP5 Prize) Preview Video and some silliness …

Posted by on February 19, 2015 ·

That Teri Girl is still going strong, with another preview of another Organized Play prize:

Chimera:

 

While we wait for the cards to go up into the Legion Builder …

Burning Ballista, Swooping Dragon is also proud to present to you a one-act performance by the Chimera:

Goathead played by … Chimera’s goat head.
Dragonhead played by … Chimera’s dragon head.
Lionhead played by … Chimera’s lion head.

The scene opens with the lovely chimera flying home after a successful hunt.

GOATHEAD is humming and begins to sing.

GOATHEAD: Chim Chimera, Chim Chimera, Chim Chim, Cher-ee …

DRAGONHEAD, growling: No.

LIONHEAD, rolling his eyes: Oh, please. Not again.

DRAGONHEAD, carefully enunciating each syllable: It’s Kai-mare-ah.

GOATHEAD, now grinning: Keymera?

DRAGONHEAD, frowning: KAI-mare-ah.

GOATHEAD, slowly, over-enunciating the word: Cam-er-a?

LIONHEAD, pleading with DRAGONHEAD: Don’t let him bait you, Dragonhead …

DRAGONHEAD, screeching in fury: KAI-MARE-AH!”

LIONHEAD, threatening: I swear, I will steer you both into the next mountainside!

GOATHEAD, glances over LIONHEAD’S head at DRAGONHEAD, catching DRAGONHEAD’s eye.

GOATHEAD, smirking: Whoa there, Kitty Perry, are we gonna hear you roar?

LIONHEAD, roaring: DO NOT CALL ME THAT!

GOATHEAD, with a falsely apologetic face: I’m sorry, didn’t mean to get your Goat!

DRAGONHEAD, snickering and grinning at GOATHEAD: Yeah, we’re sorry, we didn’t mean to let this argument … DRAGON!

GOATHEAD, giggling then yelling: Don’t horn in on my joke!

LIONHEAD, rolling his eyes in frustration: Why am I stuck with you two?

DRAGONHEAD, grinning at LIONHEAD now: We’re sorry, Liono, you know we’re manely joking.”

There is silence for a few long seconds as the Chimera flies majestically.

GOATHEAD, whispering with a loud, exaggerated whisper: We’re not really sorry … we were lion …

LIONHEAD whimpers.

END SCENE.

Oh look, cards are ready.

Torquo and the Chimera Predator plus these Upgrades have been added:

Corrosive Breath
Demonic Assault
Aggressive Surge
Multitasker
Iron Will

More pictures from Toy Fair 2015

The folks over at ICv2 have some nice close-up pics on their web page. Give them some traffic love for sharing. Thanks to Raviv for pointing these out to us!

New D&D Elemental Evil minis (note that any of these could end up being figures used for Attack Wing)

More new D&D Elemental Evil minis (note that any of these could end up being figures used for Attack Wing)

Some of the figures recently revealed by Tom Vassel:

Gold Dragon

Gargoyle

Stone Giant

Young Bronze Dragon

Drow Elf Ranger

Red Dracolich

Our first returning figure, from the look of it:

White Dragon – note that he is not labeled an Ancient White Dragon though … (now this actually correctly points at the white dragon …)

and some new figures for Attack Wing:

Shield Dwarf Fighter – why does he fight shields? Did one kill his father?

Pegasus

Young Blue Dragon

Earth Cult Warrior

Water Cult Warrior

I think the Young Blue is still my personal favorite.

Spoilers about upcoming Organized Play events

Posted by on February 17, 2015 ·

Over on a German forum for DNDAW, “Dragon’s Hollow”  (apologies to my German friends if I’ve butchered that), a retailer has revealed that an upcoming chapter of Organized Play is titled “Elemental Evil.”

Hmm …

Wizards of the Coast recently updated their Elemental Evil webpage, but it does not yet contain any hints as to what might be joining the Attack Wing universe on the page. It does have a link to the WizKids minis page, that so far, there’s been no official notice of EE tie-ins yet.

Of course, sharp-eyed fans have spotted some interesting figures in the wild:

Zoom in on that image and it looks like there’s a “Water Cult Warrior” in the upper left and some sort of “Dwarf Fighter” on the bottom left, plus a good look at the Pegasus and a wee little Blue Dragon!

“Enhance!” (/mad typing on keyboard) “Zoom in a little more?” (/really hammering on keyboard)

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

(Drat. Our crack engineering team tells me just yelling enhance and typing doesn’t magically enlarge and sharpen pictures …)

What kind of Dwarf Fighter is that? Someone guessed Gold. Runed maybe?

What’s your favorite of the newly discovered critters?

I like the tiny blue dragon, myself. I will name him George and I will  love him and hug him …

Premium Brass Dragon announced

Posted by on February 10, 2015 ·

Wow! This will be the third Brass Dragon figure announced by Wiz Kids.

The first was Sivart, the prize for the second Organized Play event (everyone went out and won one, right?).

The second is a details-not-yet-revealed unit from Wave 8. Here he is from the solicitation sheet:

Brass-Wave-8

And now they’ve announced a new Premium version:

It’s going to bring a whole new meaning to the expression, “That guy’s got a lot of brass!”

Legion Builder, now with Settings.

Posted by on February 1, 2015 ·

We’ve added some configurable settings to the Legion Builder. You access them with the cog button cogin the upper right near Print and Save.

For now, you can set the sort for Creatures or Upgrades to “Release Order”* or “Alphabetical”. You can also set whether or not to default to “Show only Equippable Upgrades”. We may add more as we go.

When you change settings, they are stored in your browser’s cache – so if you clear it or use a new browser, you will have to change your settings again.

*more or less.

Another Premium Figure announced – Silver Dragon

Posted by on February 1, 2015 ·

This is the third huge figure announced by Wiz Kids, following the previously announced Tiamat and Bahamut figures.

Huge Silver Dragon Premium Figure

The idea of Vakka having a bigger brother or sister (or parent) is a little scary! No indication if this is another Ancient Silver like Vakka yet.

The expected release is listed for June 2015!
